Neutrophil Migration and Transendothelial Assays

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Migration assays were performed in Zigmond chambers according to the manufacturer. In brief, Ly6G-PE (1A8, BioLegend) labelled neutrophils were seeded (30 min) on a collagen-coated coverslip and mounted on a glass slide chamber. A gradient of PDGF-BB activated SMC vs non-activated SMC supernatants was created and images were acquired over 30 min in 30 s intervals using a climate chamber fluorescence microscope (20x dry objective, Leica, DMi8). Speed and displacement were calculated as previously described20 (link).
To analyse transmigration, neutrophils (2 × 105) were added to the top compartment of HTS transwell 96 well plates (Corning) with a 3-μm pore size. In the lower compartment, supernatants obtained from non-activated or PDGF-BB-activated SMCs were added. After incubation for 1 h at 37 °C, transmigrated neutrophils were analysed from the bottom compartment by flow cytometry.

Spleens were frozen in OCT (Sakura) and cut into 8-μm-thick sections using a cryostat microtome. The sections were dried overnight, blocked with 5% goat sera (Dako), and stained with the following anti-mouse antibodies: B220-APC (RA3-6B2; BD Biosciences), CD138-PE (281-2; BD Biosciences), GL-7-FITC (BD Biosciences), Ly6G-PE (1A8; BioLegend), hCD2-FITC (RPA-2.10, BioLegend), IgG3-APC (R40-82), and CD11b-FITC (M1/70; BD Biosciences). Images were acquired on a confocal laser scanning microscope (Leica; TCS SP5) and processed with Photoshop software (Adobe Systems). For histopathological evaluation of the joints, paws were removed from the mice at the end point (day 61) and fixed by immersion in 4% paraformaldehyde. Paws were then decalcified in 10% ethylenediaminetetraacetate for 2 to 3 wk at room temperature, followed by paraffin embedding and sectioning. Deparaffinized and rehydrated slides were stained with H&E and used to assess joint inflammation and bone degradation (seven slides per joint at 5- and 200-μm intervals between slides). Images were acquired on a Zeiss Axioplan microscope that was equipped with an Olympus SC30 digital camera.

Cardiac tissue was isolated after sham or TAC surgery. Tissue was digested with collagenase I (450 U/mL), collagenase XI (125 U/mL), DNase I (60 U/mL), and hyaluronidase (60 U/mL), and the isolated cells from digested tissue were immunostained with fluorescently conjugated antibodies against CD45‐Pacific Blue, 30‐F11 (BioLegend Catalog #103126), Ly6G‐PE, 1A8 (BioLegend Catalog #127618), CD11b‐APC‐Cy7, M1/70 (BioLegend Catalog #101226), F4/80‐PE‐Cy7, BM8 (BioLegend Catalog #123114), and Ly6C‐FITC, HK1.4 (BioLegend Catalog #128006). Dead cells were excluded by staining with DAPI. Immunostained fluorescent cells were analyzed by flow cytometry using a BD LSR II flow cytometer (BD Bioscience). Additionally, isolated cardiac tissue was lysed and analyzed for inflammatory cytokines interleukin‐1β, inrerleukin‐6, and C‐C motif chemokine ligand 2 by quantitative reverse transcription PCR. Real‐time PCR primers are listed in Table S1.

Single-cell suspensions from mouse subcutaneous tumors were prepared as described above, counted, and resuspended in PBS at a concentration of 1×107 live cells/mL. One hundred microliters of each sample was plated for cell staining. Surface staining was performed at room temperature for 30 min, and intracellular staining was performed using a Foxp3-transcription factor staining kit (eBioscience). Live/dead cell discrimination was performed using Fixable Viability Stain 520 (BD Biosciences). Anti-mouse antibodies against the following antigens were used for flow cytometry: CD3 PerCP-CY5.5 (17A2, BioLegend, 1:100), CD45 PerCP (30-F11, BioLegend, 1:200), NK1.1 APC (PK136, BD Biosciences, 1:50), Foxp3 PE (MF23, BD Biosciences, 1:100), Ly6G PE (1A8, BioLegend, 1:100), Ly6C APC (HK1.4, BioLegend, 1:100), CD11b BV421 (M1/70, BioLegend, 1:100), CD11b PerCP-CY5.5 (HL3, BioLegend, 1:100), F4/80 APC (T45–2342, BD Biosciences, 1:50), CD25APC (3C7, BioLegend, 1:100), CD4 APC (GK1.5, BioLegend, 1:100), and CD8a PE (53-6.7; BioLegend, 1:100). All flow cytometry analyses were performed using a Fortessa flow cytometer (BD Biosciences) and analyzed using FlowJo software (TreeStar).

Mice were sacrificed 1 day after myocardial infarction. Peripheral blood was drawn through the cardiac puncture into spray-coated K2EDTA tubes (BD Biosciences). Red blood cells were lysed with the RBC lysis buffer (BioLegend). And the remaining cells were resuspended with PBS containing 0.5% (wt/vol) BSA. The cells were incubated with the following antibodies: anti-CD11b-APC, M1/70 (BioLegend); -Ly6C-PerCP/Cy5.5, HK1.4 (BioLegend); and -Ly6G-PE, 1A8 (BioLegend). Neutrophils were identified as CD11b+ Ly6Ghigh Ly6Clow. Data were acquired on the BD FACSAria™ II.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
